How can I make a difference?

Sometimes combining travel modes can also help you save carbon.

For instance, if you are planning to drive somewhere (and travelling as a single person) you could instead take a train for most of the way to your destination and then book a hire car for the final leg of your journey - that would minimise the distance you travelled using a higher emissions vehicle. How you balance the cost, time, and carbon emissions of your journey will vary depending on a number of factors, but we would encourage you to think carefully about the options, because you might be able to make a bigger carbon saving than you think, by making a few small changes.
